Kim Kardashian Tells Oprah She Suffered ‘Deep Depression’ After Divorce
Published at
Denise Truscello/WireImage(NEW YORK) — On Oprah’s Next Chapter Kim Kardashian revealed that she went into a “deep depression” following her 72-day marriage to basketball star Kris Humphries.
“I was in such a deep depression I thought I was going to back away from it all,” said Kardashian. “You know when you just have that feeling that he’s the one? When we moved in I had the feeling he was not the one.”
“If anything, the tough decision to end that relationship was such a risk of losing ratings, losing my fan base, but I had to take that risk for myself,” said Kardashian.
Kardashian says that she is now stronger than ever – an answer that left Oprah Winfrey shocked.
“I’ve obviously made plenty of mistakes in my lifetime, but I’m not the type to sit and beat myself up over it,” said Kardashian. “If a real lesson was learned, I’m so okay with having experienced that.”
Winfrey was able to have a sit-down interview with all four siblings at the same time – Kim, Kourtney, Khloe and Rob – about their “mom-ager” Kris Jenner.
“What do you say to people, you’ve heard it, when people say your mother is pimping her children,” asked Winfrey.”
“That’s so ridiculous. We have to hire a manager, why not hire our mother?” said Kim. “No one will fight harder for you than your own mother.”
Despite their fortune and fame, the Kardashians have not let the fame get to their head.
Next Sunday night OWN will air the second part of the interview with the Kardashian clan, which will feature Kim’s candid comments about her relationship with Kanye West and sit-down interviews with Khloe and her husband, Lamar Odom, and Kourtney and her boyfriend, Scott Disick.
